Bought my '12 Max SV (my 3rd one btw) Jan 2013.
Bought my '12 Max SV (my 3rd one btw) Jan 2013. 1 of 2 left on lot. MSRP 38 G. Pd 28G out the door. Now with 86000 miles. Only tires, oil changes and rear brakes. NO problems at all with a plus on performance. Best car I've ever had and my 1985 and 1993 were great cars too. May end up being the last car I have to buy. Always garaged and above average in and out and Edmunds says it's worth $3700. Hoping would be 5G at least.

We bought a 2026 Odyssey touring from this dealer and also we use the service dept, with a previous car and have a very great service. I recommend Mr. Michael Bell great gentleman and very helpful.
This is a great car.
This is a great car. Good on gas. Need for speed.lol. it has the space you need for the inside definently leg room and trunk space. If you keep up the maintenance on it you good. There is one thing that's a continued problem that I had was the power steering pump it seems like it was a common problem every year that I had the car and obviously nissan knew it but they never did a recall on it and I kept checking.

Bought my Maxima new and just about to hit 190k.
Bought my Maxima new and just about to hit 190k. It has only needed tires, brakes and oil changes. Everything still works but it is showing its age. My only complaint is the rear window defroster started bubbling about 20k ago. It is an SV with performance suspension, it’s fast and fun to drive. Good solid transportation and the body style has head up given its 12 years old

Maxima is well worth your time
I give the Maxima SV a 4.9 due to the near-sighted placement of the outlets to charge my phone. However, the 2012 Nissan Maxima SV is one fine ride. I have owned 30+ vehicles since '76, including top of the line sport models from GM, Ford, Chrysler. I owned a Datsun 240Z in the early 80's & purchased my 2012 Maxima SV ("Maximus") in 2017 with the memories of driving that Datsun foremost in my mind. I am proof little old ladies can have fun, because driving THIS car is so much fun! I am retired, & use my car for the usual; shopping, visiting with friends, etc. I live in a very rural part of Appalachia & regularly must drive 30+ miles to reach a Supercenter type store on curves, up & down hills that can intimidate the best drivers. "Maximus" laughs in the face of triple switch-backs on an average 8% grade. Plus, the Bose sound system, with 'Music Box' (records & stores every CD played) ensures I'm driving to my favorite music. The paddle-shifting, powerful acceleration, & extreme comfort of the Maxima makes it my favorite so far. If not for the unfortunate engineering that placed the outlet too close to the cup holder for my liking, I would score the Maxima SV a cool 5 ☆'s!!!

Start to Finish was fast and easy.
Start to Finish was fast and easy. Jace the salesman was fast and knowledgeable and answered every and all questions that I asked. I bought this for my 18 year old daughter and we drove 4 hours from home to buy from Dan Cummins. When we pull in her vehicle was by the door with a bow on it. Finance ended up saving me over 60 dollars a month on the payment. Awesome experience. Another plus is that they have multiple dealerships as far as Chevy, Ford, Ram. Will definitely buy from Jace and Dan Cummins again.

Had a great experience at JDM!
Had a great experience at JDM! I initally thought the prices were a bit high, but once Jasper explained all the services and work that had already been done on the car, I felt much more confident in the value he was super helpful, patient, and made the car buying process smooth and stress-free. Rose in finance was also amazing and helped me get into a car. Highly recommend JDM if you're looking for great service and a team that really cares!

Car purchase
I was reluctant to go to small lots because of all the stereotypes but they had the car I wanted and Bo responded quickly to my internet search.During the test drive I made the decision to buy if I could arrive at a satisfactory price.I had it all written out on a notebook the price I was willing to pay and the taxes the only thing I didn’t figure in was the prep fee we basically split the difference and closed the deal.I financed part of the car and got a good rate.Bo was great I told him I didn’t want any pressure and I received none.

I had an amazing experience at heritage Mazda
I had an amazing experience at heritage Mazda Catonsville. Rob Summers is an excellent sales person! He was very kind and did not rush me with the test drive so that I could really figure out which car was best for me (I test drove 3 different models). Victor that sales manager was also very kind and offered an amazing deal. Between the price, the features of the car and the service it was a no brainer to buy the car. I would highly recommend this Mazda dealership to someone looking to purchase a new Mazda. I went to 3 different Mazda dealerships and Heritage Mazda Catonsville had the best customer service and price!

On November 19 I traveled from my home to Jim butler
On November 19 I traveled from my home to Jim butler Maserati in maplewood Mo I live in souther il. This mornings travel was focused on purchasing my 2024 gmc sierra. At first when I arrived immediately I felt to be in the right place. Going forward was more than amazing in every way. Brian was my contact first I had a connection with him early on with the deal. Later in the deal worked with Mike the finance guy . Both did a great job in sitting up the purchase with my concerns and questions answered. I met a 3 week new employee Nora and her twin sister Caitlyn age 19 I think they have a solid future at Jim butler. Finally the general manager Brett did a basic final review with me on every aspect of my purchase . I was there again very pleased with his efforts. Overall experience I wish every dealer experience could be like this because it should be. I had to travel over two hours to see this for myself happy to report it was worth every mile. I am now enjoying my Sierra it is excellent everything I was looking for and more. Jim Butler you have a rock solid business with a very focused A1 staff keep this going good thing will come!
